Musical Theme: Shinedown - I'm Alive
Arden Musical Theme: Fairy Tail - Fairy Law
Name: Dyew/Arden
Age: Unknown
Race: Ardenian/Personification, Avatar, High Warden
Significant Relations: Unknown
Faction: None
Physical Description: Most of the time Dyew resembles a human with brown or green eyes. He appears to be of average height and exceptional physical build. His eye color changes with his emotions like many Ardenians. His primary attire is that of the common fantasy style adventurer at home in the wilds of the world. This consists of dark leather garments, ivory colored cotton, and wool clothing. His most noticeable feature is a white travel worn cloak embroidered with dark script in the pattern of chains or a black ragged and torn cloak that changes shape, size, moves, and omits an audible keening noise. At times he will wear modern clothing consisting of blue jeans, work boots, and an un-tucked, dark blue, button down shirt. He is also known for his beard and mustache.
Personality: Dyew can be extremely intimidating despite his average height but for the most part he is a kind individual that attempts to present his personal experience and wisdom in all the interactions he undertakes. He is an excellent source of information, wisdom, and advice. He was the original writer of the Warden's Pledge, the guide posts the wardens attempt to follow, and a set of edicts that most Ardenian wardens attempt to learn from. As such he can be considered a good individual at his center.
Skills, Abilities, Equipment, Weapons: Dyew is a mysterious being. Be assured that he carries with him an armory, that his skills are preternaturally honed, that his abilities are potent and far reaching, and that every piece of gear he carries has an important and valuable use. Known powers include:
- High Warden: On top of the abilities of the most deadly and celebrated Ardenian hero to ever tread existence Dyew is one of two High Wardens, classified as personifications. As such he represents not one character, but two and an avatar to a existential guardian. This grants him access to a wide variety of divine/god like capabilities to fulfill his purpose. He does not claim nor hold any omni-status but other entities that claim or hold an omni-status do not do so in reference to him. This means that beings that claim such a status do not know him and can not overpower or change his status simply because they claim or hold an omni-status. Many of his displayed aspects are beyond mortal comprehension. There is no known way to completely destroy a High Warden. A High Warden's purpose is to function as a celestial jailer or keeper, binding, and sealing away entities, objects, or places that pose a grave threat to existence. As such he has the tools needed to trap, confine, or seal away other divine entities and objects of truly malevolent or Lovecraftian origin. The High Wardens do have a small number of followers but this does not influence their level of influence as they are not gods and act in a different capacity.
- Avatar Spirit: Dyew's and/or Arden's manifestation in reality is an extension of his true self and has considerably less influence. He limits his power in this way to prevent the damage and strain that his actual presence would cause to the shared reality outside of his realm, the City of Doors. In this form he has ethereal physiology and consists of super dense spiritual stuff. This causes his form to be nearly impervious to physical harm through conventional means. His equipment can consist of the same stuff in varying degrees of density but is often real equipment of legendary make and material. In essence his manifested body is a phantasm and a shadow of the truth but formidable to a degree beyond mortal comprehension and immune to assaults that do not share a similar nature.
"I am all wrath, passion, and fortitude. I am the personification of courage and conflict."
- Arden
"O, it is excellent to have a giant's strength, but it is tyrannous to use it like a giant."
